@ethnopoet

Simple, down to earth guy who loves to immerse himself in different cultures while making meaningful connections along the way.

I’m an adventurous person, yet calm and reflective. I enjoy meeting open-minded people and having deep and genuine conversations just about anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet local people, celebrate cultural differences, and learn about different ways of being.

I'm here to inspire and to be inspired...
